A call to visionary women ready to activate their wild wisdom, awaken embodied leadership, and rise as stewards for a world in transition.

Why This Matters

We are living in unprecedented times, and the structures and systems of our world are changing rapidly. It has never been more important to have long vision, to navigate with intuition and gather the skills required to live well and with the land. We are living at a threshold moment. As the old systems crumble and new ways of being continue to emerge, the world is calling for women who are:

Rooted in Earth Wisdom

Living like spring water in the flow of ALIVENESS 

Lit from within by the fire of passion and courage

Calm & present Healers who feel deeply

Soul-guided and open to the profound connectivity to all of life

Changemakers who will support holistic survival and the rise of resilient communities

In this technological age, many humans living in urban centers have grown accustom to convenience, numbness and distraction. Many have lost touch with:

• The rhythms of the seasons
• The skills of self-reliance and holistic survival
• The art of being in sacred space and circle
• The intelligence of our bodies as instruments for ALIVENESS & Self-Sourced Wisdom
• The framework for bold action, education, and organization
• The courage and clarity to navigate a changing world

This is why we created the Way of the Wildkind...
